The Mead Paper Company once owned 140,000 acres of land in ten counties in southeastern Ohio.The Ohio Department of Natural Resources (DNR) had an agreement with Mead to allow public hunting on these lands.The land has since changed hands but the DNR still controls hunting on thousands of acres of these tracks.This is ideal deer and turkey hunting land, if you can determine which tracks are still open to hunting. Hunting in Scioto Land Co Public Hunting Area can be a little exhausting. Much of the land is hilly and rugged but good habitat for deer and turkey.However, you may need to keep an eye out for snakes while hunting in warm weather.I understand it contains bobcats and timber rattlesnakes. The Ohio DNR provides information online about Scioto land open to the public for hunting SciotoLandCompanyMaps.
